My name is Allen, I found this group doing a search for the Lexicon Vortex manual on Google. I have had it and the JamMan since they first came out, but never had the manual for the Vortex cause I got it used. My looping experience started in 96 with the purchase of a Digitech Multiplay pedal which no longer functions. It hooked me on looping so I had to upgrade. I read that Brad Laner (Medicine/Electric Company) was using one so I saved up 400 bucks and got one. I just upgraded the memory last winter, now it is even cooler.
I do music under the name System Boot. In the past it has been very experimental electronica oriented, done mostly with computer. I use Acid, Fruity Loops, and Jeskola Buzz to construct it. I also use some hardware synths and grooveboxes. I don't use other peoples loops, I use various techniques in creating and deconstruction. My only material release is System Boot/Mar.ch-Divide By Zero on No Logo Records. I have plenty for download on the web though. My style is changing quite a bit recently, using guitar layers and loops with glitchy microsound beats.
I am excited to see what this group is, and hopefully this letter is not to annoying. I could tell you all everything I use, but that would be really long! Hope to hear from you soon.
